Birding Hot Spots in Loudoun County

Join Joe Coleman and Laura McGranaghan, two of Loudoun County’s top birders, on a day-long search for sparrows, hawks, waterfowl and other seasonal birds at some of the county’s richest birding destinations. The group will meet in Leesburg, then move on to several locations before ending the day in the Lucketts area. Possible locations, depending on what species have been recently sighted, include Beaverdam Reservoir, Banshee Reeks, the Blue Ridge Center, and the Dulles Wetlands. All levels of birders are welcome. This Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy event is co-sponsored by the Audubon Naturalist Society (ANS). Registration required: Sign up at https://anshome.org/adults.
